2 – 3 INITIALIZATION
When loading the panel for the first time, at
initialization you get the following message (depending on the language you
use):

CLICK ON “EXECUTE”
Then you get the following message (depending
on the language you use):

CLICK ON “YES”.
Then you will never get these message again.
a)
Please
read this documentation carefully even if you are an expert in 'flying' the
777-300. Each panel has its peculiarities.
b)
Do not
load this panel over another one in which you have left some switches ON else
you may well "confuse" the panel.
c)
The
values in some gauges are interpreted differently depending on whether the
aircraft is in the TAKE OFF or LANDING phase. The aircraft is considered to be
"in the air" when it is above 1000 feet and "landing" when
it is below 900 feet. For this reason you should ALWAYS climb above 1000 feet
after take off, even when you intend to turn back for an emergency landing
(1000 feet is in any case, of course, a very low and dangerous minimum). For
the same reason, you should not load a flight in which the aircraft is already
in the air.
d)
When
creating a FLIGHTPLAN, FS includes as 1st waypoint the VOR of the departure
airport. Cancel this waypoint too closed to the runway. A such short turn is
impossible with a big jet.
e)
COST
INDEX : used
to compute cruise speed. Use preferably a low cost index for low cruise
altitudes, exemple 1000 for 18000 feet, and a higher one for higher cruise
altitudes, exemple 9000 for 36000 feet.
f) When loading the aircraft directly with VIRTUAL COCKPIT noting is
displayed. FIRST LOAD THE FORWARD INSTRUMENT PANEL THEN LOAD THE VIRTUAL
COCKPIT. This is made by FSX not by the present panel.
g)
Set
the AUTO RUDDER OFF or you will have difficulties to take off. Parameter
is in “Aircraft/Realism settings/Flight Control/Autorudder”.
